A Generalized Trace Reconstruction Problem: Recovering a String of Probabilities

A Generalized Trace Reconstruction Problem: Recovering a String of Probabilities

We introduce the following natural generalization of trace reconstruction, parameterized by a deletion probability $\delta \in (0,1)$ and length $n$: There is a length $n$ string of probabilities, $S=p_1,\ldots,p_n,$ and each "trace" is obtained by 1) sampling a length $n$ binary string whose $i$th coordinate is independently set to 1 …
